Nostalgia: Uncle Phil's Punch and Judy show

Karen Keith

This week’s photo is of Uncle Phil's Punch and Judy Show on the Rothesay promenade.

This was the setting in which the young Marie Laurie, later to become Lulu, is reputed - on Bute, at any rate - to have taken her first tentative steps into the world of public performance.
